1 MASTER OF DIVINITY

2 MASTER OF DIVINITY OBJECTIVES The three-year Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree provides a strong theological and practical foundation to those preparing for the ordained priesthood or for full-time lay ecclesial ministry in the Catholic Church. It accomplishes this goal through an integrated core curriculum designed to ensure appropriate academic, ministerial, and spiritual formation. Since leadership in ministry today requires collaboration between women and men, religious and secular, ordained and lay, the M.Div. program at the Boston College School of Theology and Ministry (STM) promotes collaborative learning as an appropriate means of preparing for ministry in all its forms. Building upon the previous theological and pastoral experience of the student, the program fosters the desire for lifelong learning and development in and through ministry. At the completion of this program, the student will be able to a. demonstrate a nuanced and integrated understanding of the Catholic theological tradition; b. apply the insights of the Catholic theological tradition to engage with contemporary social and religious issues; c. integrate theological thinking with ministerial practice in response to pastoral needs; d. demonstrate the competencies constitutive of effective and co-responsible ministry; and e. embody a level of human and spiritual formation that accords with the requirements for ecclesial ministry in the Catholic Church. John Baldovin, S.J. is the Director of the M.Div. program. ACADEMIC FORMATION Shaped by Boston College s commitment to excellence, the M.Div. program supports the student's academic formation through disciplined theological study. Priests and lay ministers must be able to interpret the meaning and relevance of Christian revelation and the Church s tradition for today s world. To do this requires the mastery of basic and advanced courses in Scripture, Church History, Historical-Systematic- Practical Theology, and Moral Theology. MINISTERIAL FORMATION The ministerial formation of the student is a basic goal of the entire curriculum. The ability to engage in personal theological reflection and the cultivation of ministerial skills through practice and regular supervision are integral components of a comprehensive preparation for ministry. Required seminars and courses in pastoral studies address specific issues of formation for ministry. SPIRITUAL FORMATION M. Div. students participate in a program of formation that expresses the STM s commitment to the formation of the whole person for effective ministry. For lay students, the development of a formation portfolio under the guidance of a Spiritual Formation advisor fulfills the degree requirements for formation. For students who

3 are members of religious orders or candidates for ordination, participation in the formation program of a religious order or diocese fulfills this requirement. NOTE: STM s three-year M.Div. program does not fulfill the requirement that all candidates for the priesthood complete four years of theology as set forth in the Program of Priestly Formation of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. Jesuits and other candidates for ordination at STM spend an additional year in theological study after earning the M.Div. degree. For Jesuits, the Regional Order of Studies for the American Assistancy stipulates an advanced master s degree or a Licentiate in one of the programs offered by one of the theological centers of the United States Assistancy or Canada. Completion of the S.T.L. degree program at the STM subsequent to the M.Div. fulfills this requirement. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS To make the best use of STM s academic resources, applicants to the M.Div. program should have achieved a high level of intellectual, social, and religious maturity. A. Applicants should follow the general admissions procedures found on STM s website, B. Previous Educational Experience 1. Applicants should possess intellectual inquisitiveness and imagination, and the ability to communicate effectively in speech and in writing. Consequently, they are required to give evidence of a bachelor s degree gained with above average grades from an accredited college, or an equivalent degree or certificate if the applicant is an international student. Applicants are required to submit scores on the Graduate Record Examinations or Miller Analogies Test, unless they already possess a graduate degree. 2. Applicants should be broadly acquainted with the disciplines classified under liberal arts and humanities. Ordinarily, one third of the applicant s undergraduate program should, therefore, have been comprised of courses in philosophy, religious studies or theology, literature, history, social and behavioral sciences, and foreign languages. Applicants with an undergraduate major or concentration in the natural sciences, engineering, business, music, or the performing arts may have to supplement their previous work with further study in the humanities. Within the framework of the humanities, it is important that the applicant have well-developed reasoning and analytical skills and be well acquainted with the history of Western philosophy; competence in this regard should ordinarily be demonstrated by at least twelve semester credits in philosophy. Students admitted to the M.Div. program on the condition that they complete this prerequisite to the MDiv program can take courses in the Philosophy Department at Boston College. Such courses may not be counted toward the M.Div. degree. Jesuits are expected to have completed thirty-six graduate credit hours of philosophy and twenty-four graduate credit hours of theology during their First Studies Program. 3. The Associate Dean for Academic Affairs will consider an applicant s request that up to twenty-four credit hours for graduate courses in theology taken elsewhere be applied to the M.Div. program, provided that these courses: are judged to be equivalent to STM courses; have been taken at an accredited institution on a graduate level;

4 have been taken within the preceding six-year period; have not already been applied to a degree received; have received a grade of B or higher. C. Personal and Social Qualities Applicants should manifest the faith and religious commitment, the self-reliance and resourcefulness, and the integrity and personal maturity that a program of preparation for professional ministry presupposes. To help determine whether applicants possess these qualities to a satisfactory degree, proof of at least one year of fulltime, self-supporting work after college in a ministerial setting or similar service role is required for admission to the M.Div. program. D. Applicants may be asked to come for an interview with the Admissions Committee. E. Seminarians/members of religious orders must submit a letter of approval from their bishop/major superior. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS Students must complete eighty-four credit hours of academic course work with a G.P.A. of at least 3.0 and synthesis exams at the end of their program. The program is designed so that a full-time student can complete it in three years. Depending on the kind of ministry involved, some students prefer to do the Professional Ministry Practicum during the summer. Courses taken at other institutions during the summer may be considered for transfer credit according to the guidelines stated above. Part-time students may take a maximum of six years to complete the program from the time of matriculation in the degree program. CREDIT DISTRIBUTION FOR COURSEWORK Eighty-four credit hours of course work must be divided between the following areas: Biblical Studies: fifteen credit hours Students should learn to use the methods of modern biblical interpretation. Specifically, they should become knowledgeable about the practice and applicability of exegesis; they should also develop a deep acquaintance with the biblical theology of the Pentateuchal, Prophetic, and Wisdom books in the Old Testament and of the Synoptic, Johannine, and Pauline literatures in the New Testament. The credits are to be distributed as follows: six credits of Old Testament; six credits of New Testament; and three credits in either Old Testament or New Testament. Church History: nine credit hours Students should acquire a knowledge of historical method, an ability to use historical documents critically, and a broad acquaintance with the major periods (Early, Medieval and Reformation, and Modern) in the social, cultural, and institutional development of Christianity.

5 Historical-Systematic-Practical Theology: fifteen credit hours Students are expected to learn sound theological skills and methods, become familiar with the history and development of the Church and its doctrines, and develop an internalized appropriation of the core mystery of faith expressed in these doctrines, in a way that relates them to Christian life and ministry. Required: courses in Fundamental Theology, Christology, and Church. NOTE: Students are required to complete The Church before enrolling in Ecclesial Ministry. Moral Theology: nine credit hours Students should acquire the ability to deal systematically with ethical issues in a Catholic theological context. Work should be done in areas such as social ethics, sexuality and marriage, and bio-medical ethics. Required: Fundamental Moral Theology. Pastoral Studies: twelve credit hours (lay students) OR nine credit hours (ordination candidates) Students should be effective in various areas of pastoral life, including pastoral care, spiritual direction, religious education, social ministry, and pastoral administration and be able to interpret faithfully and compassionately the pastoral law of the Church. All students must take a one course each in pastoral care and counseling and canon law and an elective in pastoral studies. In addition, lay students must take a course in religious education or spirituality. Word and Worship: nine credit hours for lay students; eighteen for students preparing for ordination Students preparing for ordination or lay ecclesial ministry are expected to prepare themselves, in ways appropriate to these ministries, to preach effectively the Good News, and to preside prayerfully at the Church s worship. Candidates for lay ecclesial ministry must take a sacrament course and a course in liturgical practice (e.g., Preaching, Presiding), as well as a course in the theology of ministry. Candidates for ordination must take Eucharist, preaching, the reconciliation practicum, the rites practicum, a course in the theology of liturgy, and a course on the theology of the priesthood. NOTE the following prerequisites: An ecclesiology course is a prerequisite for the course on priesthood (Ecclesial Ministry). The introduction to the liturgy course is a prerequisite for the rites practicum. A course in fundamental moral theology and a course in canon law are prerequisites for the reconciliation practicum. FORMATION FOR MINISTRY While the STM does not certify anyone for ministry, it is committed to providing the best possible opportunities and guidance to help students with the process of education, formation, and professional development that must become a life-long endeavor. For this reason, appropriate, substantive, and intentional participation in a spiritual formation process is an expectation. In addition, all students are required to complete the Ministry for Mission Seminar, a two-semester, three-credit seminar. Co-Workers in the Vineyard of the Lord (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops) underscores the fact that formation of the whole person is essential for effective ministry. At STM, it is a requirement for all entering M.Div. students. Participation in the formation program of a religious order or diocese fulfills this requirement. For lay students, participation in the Lay Formation Program fulfills this requirement.

6 Lay Formation Program The program of formation for lay students is overseen by members of the Spiritual Formation Committee, a standing committee of the Academic Council. Each student will meet with a member of the committee who will serve as the student's spiritual formation advisor. The spiritual formation advisor will meet with the student during the first semester of each academic year to explain and coordinate the formation process. The formation program for each student will be flexible, while addressing the standards approved by the U.S. bishops in the National Certification Standards for Lay Ecclesial Ministry (National Association for Lay Ministry, National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry, and National Conference for Catechetical Leadership): 1. personal and spiritual maturity; 2. lay ecclesial ministry identity; 3. Catholic theology; 4. pastoral praxis; and 5. professional praxis. Students consult with their spiritual formation advisor to plan a process of suitable spiritual formation to address area (1). They consult with their academic advisors to plan a suitable course of studies to address area (3). They consult with the Professor of Pastoral Care and Contextual Education to plan pastoral courses and ministerial placements to address areas (2, 4, and 5). The student s spiritual formation advisor maintains oversight of the whole process and will verify to the department chair when each student has fulfilled the formation requirement for graduation. Students are expected to be proactive, adult learners who, with the advice of their advisors, will be able to choose among multiple options to develop an appropriate formation program. Students will keep a formation portfolio to document their participation in, completion of, and reflection upon various elements of their formation process. First Year of Residency The focus of the first year is to establish a theological and professional foundation for ministry and to help students begin to form an approach to ministry. The goal is a mastery of basic courses in church history, scripture, moral theology, and historical-systematic-practical theology. In the first semester, lay students meet with the Associate Director of Spiritual Formation. Ministry for Mission Seminar In spring semester of their first year and fall semester of their second year, MDiv students, as a cohort, will take part in a two-semester, 3-credit seminar that focuses on identifying and fostering the practices and analytic skills essential to ministry in the contemporary church. Second Year of Residency The focus of the second year is to develop theological and professional competencies. The goals are to deepen the students familiarity with scripture in a way that prepares them for effective preaching; to deepen familiarity with the Church s moral and theological teaching; and to deepen the formation process of ministerial identity and personal spirituality. Third Year of Residency The primary goal of the third year is to own and articulate an integrated, collaborative theology of ministry. The goals are to further and enhance integrative studies through advanced course work, seminars, and ministerial experience; to demonstrate competency in the areas of preaching, liturgical presiding and prayer leadership; and to identify and acquire other pastoral skills for collaboration in team ministry.

7 MDiv synthesis exam MDiv students will be required to do a theological synthesis exam before they graduate. This exam will be taken in the last semester of residency and will consist of four written exams and an hour oral exam with a panel of professors. The content of the exam will be based on the Nicene Creed. THE PROFESSIONAL MINISTRY PRACTICUM Candidates are required to complete six credit hours of a Professional Ministry Practicum. The Professional Ministry Practicum is an integral part of ministerial formation at STM, and is designed specifically for M.Div. candidates who have been active in ministry prior to their admission. The main objective of the practicum is to foster a ministerial identity that is formed by the study of theology, the practice of theological reflection, and the exercise of ministerial responsibilities in a setting where well-defined professional objectives can be achieved and evaluated. Basic competencies associated with ministerial practice and human services are presupposed. The specific terms of the practicum are proposed by the student and agreed to by the on-site supervisor/mentor, the academic advisor, and the Faculty Director of Contextual Education for the Ecclesiastical Faculty. The selected practicum site and the on-site supervisor/mentor must meet the professional criteria set by the Faculty Director. Other Ministry Practica In addition to the required, six-credit-hour Professional Ministry Practicum, students in the M.Div. program may choose up to six credit hours to fulfill elective requirements from among the following practica: Advanced Professional Ministry Practicum; Diaconate Practicum; or Supervised Practicum in Spiritual Direction. A maximum of twelve credit hours of ministry practica may be used in fulfillment of the requirements of the M.Div. degree. Jesuit Candidates for Ordination In order to fulfill the canonical requirements for ordination and the norms established by the United States Assistancy of the Society of Jesus, Jesuits must complete an additional eight graduate courses in theology in addition to the M.Div. degree. Ordinarily, this is accomplished by one full year of theology during First Studies and three full years of study and residency at a theology center. In planning a course of studies at STM and in consultation with their academic advisors, Jesuits may choose among three options to complement the M.Div. degree: (1) the S.T.L.; (2) the Th.M.; or (3) eight additional electives. In addition to the general requirements for ordination already noted above, Jesuits must take at least one course that explores contemporary justice and/or human rights questions and one course with an ecumenical or interreligious focus. Candidates for Ordination to Diaconate and Priesthood Candidates for ordination in the Roman Catholic Church must complete four full years of theological studies, including the successful completion of the M.Div. degree. In addition, they must show competence in a number of specific pastoral and liturgical areas as specified in the Program of Priestly Formation (5 th ed.) of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. The Boston College School of Theology and Ministry provides several measures of such competence as may be required by the Ecclesiastical Ordinary through courses offered in pastoral studies. Certification of competence in the administration of the sacraments is given through successful completion of the Rites Practicum. Competence in the Sacrament of Reconciliation is assured through the Examinatio Ad Audiendas Confessiones, which is offered within the Confession Practicum, or which may otherwise be specially arranged. Competency in preaching is demonstrated through

8 successful completion of a course in preaching. Competence with regard to the pastoral law of the Church is attested to by successful completion of one or more courses in Canon Law.
